UTS6JC1492PY features a 12-contact straight plug in a plastic housing with a sealing gland back shell, delivering a reliable IP68/69K connection for equipment exposed to moisture, dust, and vibration. The business impact is tangible: superior sealing reduces maintenance downtime and extends service intervals, enabling uptime in harsh outdoor and transport environments where quick field servicing matters most. In practice, this means faster panel-to-cack wiring in mobile machinery and outdoor automation, with compatibility into the Souriau UTS family for scalable solutions. The 1/3 bayonet coupling simplifies mating, while the 5-14 mm cable diameter range and polyamide insert support flexible cable management and compact layouts in constrained enclosures. With a 250 mating cycle rating and broad certifications, engineers can design for longevity, not just initial performance. The connector’s UV resistance and oil/damage tolerance offer durable operation in industrial settings, supporting long-term total cost of ownership improvements. This combination of features helps overcome common objections about rugged interconnects by delivering predictable performance, easy installation, and measurable reliability gains in demanding applications.

FAQs
The UTS6JC1492PY uses a 12-position crimp contact layout. Begin by preparing the cable with a 5-14 mm diameter, select the correct crimp contacts, and insert them into the polyamide insert. Attach the sealing gland backshell and ensure the backshell angle is straight for proper alignment. Mate with the corresponding plug and engage the 1/3 bayonet coupling to seal. Verify the 12-contact configuration with correct crimp tooling, then test continuity and insulation resistance to confirm a reliable seal under IP68 conditions.
The connector is rated for 10 A per IEC/UL, with a test current of 7 A (CSA) and 10 A (IEC/UL). It supports a test voltage of 600 V (UL/CSA) and 63 V (IEC). Operating temperature ranges from -40 °C to 105 °C, with an IP68 protection level. It uses crimp contacts, supports 12 contacts, and accommodates cable diameters from 5 to 14 mm, making it suitable for high-vibration and temperature-variable industrial environments.
Yes. The UTS6JC1492PY is designed for harsh outdoor and mobile equipment environments, offering IP68 protection, UV resistance, oil and chemical resistance, and a backshell sealing gland to maintain integrity against moisture and dust. Its straight plug and 1/3 bayonet coupling simplify field connections in space-constrained locations, while the 12-pin layout provides ample interconnect capacity for complex control and sensing systems.
This Eaton Souriau UTS connector complies with UL 1977 for modular interconnection systems, IEC 61984 for connectors, and CSA-C22.2 No.182.3. It also features a UL94 V0 flammability rating in the environmental specifications. These certifications ensure regulatory compatibility across North American and international markets, supporting safe integration into building automation, machinery, and portfolio automation projects.
The UTS6JC1492PY provides up to 250 mating cycles, robust sealing to minimize ingress-related faults, and resistance to oil, gas, and environmental exposure. Its backshell with sealing gland reduces gapping and moisture ingress during cable movement, which translates into lower maintenance frequency, reduced downtime, and a lower total cost of ownership for equipment fleets in manufacturing and outdoor installations.
